"A Riesling with plenty of charm, according to James Suckling—it's fresh, young, and deliciously herbaceous!"

"Molitor's 2022 Wehlener Klosterberg Kabinett Riesling (white capsule) is a Mosel classic that opens with a pure, bright, fresh, and floral bouquet of ripe fruit, crushed slate, and lemon zest. Round and juicy on the palate, this elegant and charming Kabinett comes from a cooler site in the side valley where the estate is located. It is easy to drink and has enough minerality to pair with raw seafood or fish. 10% alcohol by volume. Natural cork. Tasted at the winery in August 2024. 2024–2040” (Robert Parker 2024)

About the wine:

Intense aromas of lemon zest and star fruit, along with the freshness of garden herbs, lend great charm to this dry, young, and light Riesling. Despite its moderate acidity, it is crisp and full-flavored on the palate. Only 10% alcohol. Enjoy now or save for later.
